This car has been a labor of
love for me the last year 3 years. I bought the car from the orginal owner
(picture
of the car in 1985) in Atlanta on 6/6/04 with 115226 miles on its
odometer. I had the car restored mechanically during the winter of 04
and had the exterior stripped bare metal and repainted in 05. I drive
the car on pretty weekends and to shows and am selling the car to persue
other car interests. If you are looking for a like new Bertone (with a
few improvements of course) in white then you have found your car. The
orginal owner , when I took it back for him to see post restoration, said
it looked better than it did when he bought it. Guess you cant top that
!

This car has been maintained
by a 30+ years of experience Fiat mechanic who raced X1/9s for several
years with SCCA. He worked on X1/9s from their introduction in 1974 and,
at one time, had over 50 X1/9s as customer cars he serviced. This car
has been a passion for him and he lights up when I say I am bringing it
in as he loves to drive it =) He is part of the reason I am selling as
he has a car he wants me to bring back to life , a VERY modified 1979
X1/9 (his last remaining X), and I am starting to give into his temptation.

I have to say this is the best
driving Fiat I have ever driven on the street. At 5500RPMs on the interstate
in 5th (you can figure out what speed that is *wink*) the car is rock
solid smooth and even after running 4000-5000RPMs in 5th (with a few trips
to over 5500 to pass) for 5 hours in 95+F weather my temp gauge reads
190. The car starts with zero effort , has zero play in the steering,
uses no oil between changes (changed every 3K miles with synthetic), has
almost no rust (see below for more on this),

Note all underbody images were taken
after 15K+ miles and no cleaning was done there as none was needed =) I also
found out how hard white is to photograph as it seems the flash brings out every
spec of dirt and magnifies it. If more images are needed of any area of the
car I would be glad to take them , just let me know where and I will get them
to you ASAP!
